For maximum performance, use HSS drill bits for metal drilling.

centre of the hole using a centre punch.
Use a suitable lubricant for the material you are working on.
Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit fr
rting point.
Always clamp sheet metal. Support thin metal with a block of wood to avoid distorting it.
For maximum performance, use high quality carbide-tipped masonry drill bits when drilling holes in brick, tile, concrete etc.
Use the drilling mode initially then revert to the impact mode once the holes are established.
Apply light pressure and medium speed for best results in brick.
Apply additional pressure and high speed for hard materials such as concrete.
When drilling holes in tile, practice on a scrap piece to determine the best speed and pressure.
Always disconnect the device before performing any adjustment or maintenance
operation. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent in order to avoid a hazard.
Disconnect from the power supply immediately if the supply cord is damaged.
Take care not to expose this tool to the rain.
If the carbon brushes need to be replaced, have this done by a qualified repair person (always
replace the two brushes at the same time)
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastic parts are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be
damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
All the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a nt amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions,
therefore no further lubrication is required.
NOTE: Reverse rotation during impact drilling may damage the drill and drill bit.

WARNING: Always check that the power supply is the same as that indicated on
the nameplate of the tool.
This tool has a variable speed switch which can reach higher speed with increased trigger pressure.
Speed is controlled by the pressure to the switch trigger. The variable speed feature is particularly useful when starting drilling. It also enables you to
select the best speed for a particular application.
Start the tool by squeezing the variable speed trigger switch.
Release the trigger to stop the tool.
If you press the lock on button while the trigger switch is depressed, the switch is kept in the operating position. This is convenient when continuous
operating for extended periods of time is required.
To release the lock on button, press and release the trigger switch.
When attempting to drill a large diameter hole, it is sometimes best to start with a smaller drill bit then work up to the required size.
This prevents overloading the drill.
WARNING! Many accidents occur because of unforeseeable situations. Please
pay attention that drilling-out a small hole may cause the drill bit to jam in the
hole, especially when drilling metal.
Remember to use a “wood-pecker” action on deep holes to allow the swarf to be ejected from the hole.
If the drill bit snags, swit
ately to prevent permanent damage to the drill.
Try running the drill in reverse to remove the bit.
Keep the drill in line with the hole. Ideally, the drill bit should enter at right angles to the work. If the angle is changed during drilling, this could cause
the bit t
king the hole and perhaps causing injury.
Reduce pressure as the drill is about to break through the item being drilled.
Don’t force the drill, let it work at its own pace.
Keep the drill bit sharp.
For maximum performance when drilling larger holes, use auger bits or spade bits for wood drilling.
Set the tool to the drill mode.
Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit fr
rting point. Increase the speed as it bites into the wood.
When drilling through holes, place a block of wood behind the work piece to prevent ragged or splintered edges on the back of the hole.
